List of people from the Basque Country

As you said, self-identification amongst Basques via the language is strong. Therefore, there are people without Basque ancestry who were not born in the Basque Country but identify as Basque because they speak Basque and consider Basque culture their. Can such people be included on the list or do you think it is cultural appropriation? Mapatxea (talk) 21:19, 13 December 2021 (UTC)

I'm not the measure of such things but I'd say there's a clue in the name, euskaldunak, 'those who have the Basque language'. Of course not every speaker of Basque makes a claim to being Basque (Prof Kim McCone for example, who speaks extremely fluent Basque or the late Larry Trask) but - and this is just my view - if someone is a speaker and self-identifies as Basque, it would be hard to justify excluding them.

Women in Green's October 2024 edit-a-thon

Hello WikiProject Basque:

WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Edit-a-thon event in October 2024!

Running from October 1 to 31, 2024, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme Around the World in 31 Days! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 31 countries (or broader international articles) by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.

We hope to see you there!
